AUREUS Updates
Organization Demographic Updates: We may be contacting you to get information about your organization, such as your payroll schedules. Having up-to-date information in AUREUS will ensure proper functionality when we go live.
AUREUS Testing Update: We've started the first of several phases of the next year's User Acceptance Testing ("UAT"). In July 2024, internal URS employees began conducting end-to-end testing. Over the next several weeks, we'll be contacting employers who have volunteered to conduct AUREUS testing to give them more information about dates, location, and how they can prepare. After that, we'll be conducting parallel testing with employers (more information to come).
What is AUREUS? Visit the AUREUS home page where you will find file formats (for employers who choose to submit information to URS through a batch process on a file) and webinars to better understand how AUREUS will affect you.

Help Your Employees Save for a Secure Retirement
Opt for automatic enrollment in URS Savings Plans to increase employee participation. Studies show about 40 percent of employees don't participate in their employer’s retirement savings plans. However, automatic enrollment increases participation to about 88%*.
With automatic enrollment, new employees automatically participate in URS Savings Plans at a percentage the employer sets. The employee can proactively opt-out at any time.
